With much love your... Friend?

Jon was getting worried, it has been already couple weeks since he last heard from Zak. Probably over two months, and his patients were finally waring down. After a few arguments with himself, and debating on whether or not to mail her. Jon finally did.

Dear Zak,

How are you? I haven't heard from you since the last time I left you at the gates of Hogwarts. I miss you and I'm a bit worried. Did you talk to Andy or Brian about your problems? Of the events that took place at the mall. Please write back, I just want to make sure your okay.

Sincerely yours,
Jon~

Zazuka had her eyes closed in the middle of her bed. She had cast sevral spells around her bed after Kailey complained of the smell of sage. She had to calm herself down because her Eye was acting up again. What she was seeing had freaked her out some but still she was not going to give in. Zazuka breathed in, trying to clean out all the gunk that could make her visions twist. It was here that the letter found her. She reached up with her eyes closed out the open window and looked at it. Zazuka felt like she could not brake again.

Dear Jon,

I'm ok, there was one time when I felt the need almost overtake me. I was pulled back though. I can't talk to Andy she's much too happy to deal with my melodrama. I can't ruin what Chrispin has put back together. It's been a long time since Andy has been truly happy. Brian won't talk to me. I keep trying to make time for us but something keeps coming up. With exams coming up it's not that strange. I'm hanging on though. I can manage on my own. I wish you where here though, when things get really bad.

I talked to Maddiie for a little while. She's really kind. She helped me though one of my more terrible mishaps. I had a vision about her but I don't remember. I rarely remember things like this. I'm working on it. The only resone I remember the one that scares me so much is because I keep having it. I hope things at Drumstrang are better and write back soon.

With much love your friend,
Zuka

Jon was sitting in his dormroom window sill when Zak letter arrived. He hadn't been himself lately, most his hours spent locked up in his dormitory. He was worried for many reason, he couldn't sleep good at nights anymore. It was than Zak letter had arrived, he was glad to finally hear from her after a weeks without words.

Dearest Zazuka,

I'm really disappointed that your friends aren't there for you as much. Not to be one to send you bad news, soon they won't be consider your friends anymore. Its the truth, most friendship come to in end. Well I hope that ours don't, its been almost two years or more now that I have known you. I don't know what to say, but at this point I wish for it to never end. I'm sorry that your still having those visions, just try to fight. Again I feel hopeless because I can never do anything to stop it. Keep your head up high at least for me?

I'm glad that Maddiie someone you can talk to. She always been a loving sister sort of mother type. Even though I have told her to be herself still she won't listen. She cares to much about others, its a curse in our family, you could say. If your vision about her is anything I need to worry about please tell me. The last time we spoke she was still getting sick, her illness had been acting up. Maybe its something you could help her with? Anyways, missing you loads.

Jon~

Ps. Sorry for this disconnected letter. My mind has been wondering off for a while. I'm just worried....

Zazuka had been suffering on her bed for a bit. When Jon’s letter came she had been happy to hear from him but everything had just been so bad that she could even get up the will to write a quick note to Jon. She saw this as selfish and self centered but she even after she got the parchment to write the letter nothing seemed to come out of the end of her quill. Finally after a week since getting Jon’s letter Zazuka wrote.

My loving friend Jon,

My friends would be here beside me if they could. I know Andy would, I just… I can’t bring her down not when she’s got so much happiness now. I can’t take that away from her. Brian I can’t speak for. Can I tell you something? It really seems like he’s keeping his distance from me like I scare him or something. I could understand if I did. There is so much about me that would put anyone on end. You are one of the few that can be around me without thinking how scary I can be.

Maddiie was wonderful to me. I guess it does run in the family. You are all so kind to me. I worry for Maddiie though. I don’t know what it is because as usual if I did have a vision I don’t remember it. When ever I see her I feel as some day soon she won’t know me. It makes my heart sink. Look out for her when school is out Ok Jon? I feel as if Maddiie will need someone to be there for her when the time comes.

Other visions are pretty much under control. The medicine woman that you took me to is helping me a lot. She says that soon I won’t even need her herbs anymore. I hope that’s right. That’s not what I’m struggling with though. It seems that Delphi has a toxic hold to it. Even as I write to you know I think about the root and how I can boil it in water… Let’s not go into that let’s just say that I would be sleeping for days. Everything is fine though. I haven’t given in. How are things on your end? Don’t worry too much I’m sure everything will turn out ok in the end. I’m missing you so much right now.

With much love,

Zuka

On the back of he letter there was a note that Zazuka had not noticed. She had written her letter on the back of a page she had already used while she had slipped into a trance not too long ago. The handwriting was harsh not at all like the soft loopy writing that Zazuka usually wrote in.

The lonely Queen of Cups weeps
Her eyes covered by malice undiluted.
Her very soul torn by forces uncompassionate.

All the while shared blood becomes a stranger
For a year all memories of a full life will fade
A new name gives way to a new life deep within.

The stage will be set, the players summoned
One event will set the course for the days to follow
It will take place where shadows dwell.
